You live so far away from me
Like our long family history
How's your family doing?
I hope you are doing well cousin
You've been climbing the age tree for so long
The president of all cousins
We're all just waiting on you to find a first lady
"How is that going?" - my dad wonders.
Don't listen to him
Just give him Heineken
And he'll be just fine
I think you're handsome as a dime
Going to travel to Canada some time
Maybe sooner or later
Need to renew my passport
So you can escort me around your city.
Til' next time ol' cousin
Love you. Bye.
